My place is untouched

If I remember correctly you use the canna boost? It’s pretty darn expensive.

Yes one liter cost what 5 liters of the a & b costs. But I love the results :sunglasses::v::call_me_hand:
I haven’t priced or used the pk 13/14 but if it’s adds to what I’m gettin I’m gonna give it a try on the next run

I’m using canna’s coco a & b Rizotonic , Cannazym, Boost , cal-mag , silica

I’m using the same just not cal mag or silica. I am using the pm 13/14, but it only calls for it on one week with the canna aqua. The boost is $1,200 per 20 L bottle, and with Aqua it’s 3 cups per week.
I also see foxtailing again, I’m thinking I have too much light, I’m running one light per plant, I’ve put my meter on them, 600-700 umol’s, but it’s the only thing I can think of.
Come January I’m going to build my room in my shop with lung room, veg room, bloom room and trim/drying room, so I can control everything better.

I didn’t think pk 13/14 added any value to grow when using, but that was just my experience. I agree that canna boost is the meal ticket of the entire line. The pgr getting most of the results is triacontanol. Alfalfa and alfalfa extract are also a good source of this. I’m not sure that using is more cost efficient in terms of volume provided but thought I would throw it out.

Is the foxtailing just on the tallest points of the plant or all over it? If it’s everywhere it’s not the light :v::call_me_hand:

Appears to be wide spread, so now I’m thinking it’s the heat from the lights. With 2 portable a/c units running it still hits 90 in the tent. So again, if I’m using too many lights that’s producing that much heat, maybe I need to cut back and reconfigure the space after this grow.

Is all the plants foxtailing or just 1 or 2?
Sometimes it’s just genitics :v::call_me_hand:

Howdy Mtn. Man… Brother I really cringed when I saw your defoliation technique. It seems to me you are stressing the plants way to much removing that much of their foliage. Stress is a big part of foxtailing, from what I know of it. Just my observations.

@RightAway There’s a hundred different Growin styles everyone does not grow the same. I’ve done this technique dozens of times with outstanding results :v::call_me_hand:

Appears to be all, but lights are off right now so can’t double check

@Dman1969 Agreed . There are as many ways to grow as there are growers. Its good to know that the technique is proven. And the DLI may be the culprit if all other parameters are being met. When the DLI is pushed to the limits CO2 supplementation is required. Temperatures have to be adjusted, RH is very important . All the parameters have to be on point. Its a very fine line. I personally still think an extreme defoliation has to stress a plant to some extent. But thats my opinion.

@RightAway Some stress on plants can be a good thing it’s a matter of knowing which stressors are in your favor. I stress mine in several different ways on purpose. A few I learned by accident. :v::call_me_hand:
